I am encouraging my wedding clients to choose a location that has meaning for them for their portraits. Rebecca and Ryan chose Georges Fair Estate where their house is being built. We had a lot of fun being unconventional with poses sitting on the kitchen counter, holding planks of wood and hiding in cupboards for smooches! We also came across an abondoned car that is the next to the Estate’s grassy open areas.

I met with Clare and Jason on Saturday afternoon across from Central Station and we strolled the streets of Surry Hills (only a few blocks) and we found so many cool spots including a red wall feature that Clare spotted I just love it when my couples are adventurous and happy to do crazy stuff including standing by Dominos delivery bikes and jumping in shopping trolleys Enjoy this colourful urban session! Thansk Clare and Jason, can’t wait for your Blue Mountains Wedding in October

Just for fun

My lovely March 7 bride, Melissa decided to give her brother, Ben, a gift of photos for his engagement. Mel and her other brother Luke, asked me to do an Engagement/Pregnancy Session and capture some of the engagement party. I met Ben and Louise at ‘the Rock’ which is in the Blue Mountains National Park just out from Mulgoa. It is a beautiful location and quite scary as there is no fencing around the rock and if you slip..well that’s it…down you go! Needless to say we were very careful and we had a lot of fun trying to capture as many moments as possible before the light disappeared! Here are some of the photos we were able to capture in 25 minutes. Ben and Louise are great in front of the camera and have a natural glow and connection. Congrats!

I have found my new favourite location for couple and family photos! Bec and Charlie were so wonderful in being adventurous – including climbing trees, braving the spider infested jungle and Charlie going topless (these pics are for Bec’s eyes only)!

I can’t tell you how lucky I feel each week to spend this time with each couple. I look forward to your big wedding in November and keep up the great ‘work’ at being an incredible couple

I have two other portrait sessions that I need to post from a couple of weeks back so please come back in the next week for more fun pics!
